      KVM: x86/mmu: WARN if root_hpa is invalid when handling a page fault · 6948199a
      Sean Christopherson authored
      WARN if root_hpa is invalid when handling a page fault.  The check on
      root_hpa exists for historical reasons that no longer apply to the
      current KVM code base.
      
      Remove an equivalent debug-only warning in direct_page_fault(), whose
      existence more or less confirms that root_hpa should always be valid
      when handling a page fault.

      KVM: x86/mmu: WARN on an invalid root_hpa · 0c7a98e3
      Sean Christopherson authored
      WARN on the existing invalid root_hpa checks in __direct_map() and
      FNAME(fetch).  The "legitimate" path that invalidated root_hpa in the
      middle of a page fault is long since gone, i.e. it should no longer be
      impossible to invalidate in the middle of a page fault[*].
      
      The root_hpa checks were added by two related commits
      
        989c6b34 ("KVM: MMU: handle invalid root_hpa at __direct_map")
        37f6a4e2 ("KVM: x86: handle invalid root_hpa everywhere")
      
      to fix a bug where nested_vmx_vmexit() could be called *in the middle*
      of a page fault.  At the time, vmx_interrupt_allowed(), which was and
      still is used by kvm_can_do_async_pf() via ->interrupt_allowed(),
      directly invoked nested_vmx_vmexit() to switch from L2 to L1 to emulate
      a VM-Exit on a pending interrupt.  Emulating the nested VM-Exit resulted
      in root_hpa being invalidated by kvm_mmu_reset_context() without
      explicitly terminating the page fault.
      
      Now that root_hpa is checked for validity by kvm_mmu_page_fault(), WARN
      on an invalid root_hpa to detect any flows that reset the MMU while
      handling a page fault.  The broken vmx_interrupt_allowed() behavior has
      long since been fixed and resetting the MMU during a page fault should
      not be considered legal behavior.
      
      [*] It's actually technically possible in FNAME(page_fault)() because it
          calls inject_page_fault() when the guest translation is invalid, but
          in that case the page fault handling is immediately terminated.
